Professor Michael Power at the London School of Economics calls it ‘Audit Explosion' - the rising trend towards audits In this podcast, Kristine Storkensen and Nippin Anand discuss the 'Audit Explosion'. Together they explore:What makes the maritime industry susceptible to audit explosion?What is the (hidden) agenda behind audit explosion?How audit explosion undermines its own purpose (ie risk and safety at sea)?What can we learn from other industries and work sectors to address these issues?See a short video from Kristine Storkensen that beautifully captures the message.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4-MXnA_oQoListen to a previous podcast on this topic:https://open.spotify.com/episode/2owjmNqXmCbiw0UtUqhskl?si=WBZxl6uWTNqsXK6AajJvTw

I had a gentleman we went through an audit with just a few weeks ago, and to be quite honest with you, we went through with no problems. His documents were in good order. The questions they had, we had exact numbers. They didn’t dig very far because the answers that we gave them stopped them pretty much.

Alexandru Voica, Head of Corporate Affairs and Policy at Synthesia, discusses how the world's largest enterprise AI video platform has approached trust and safety from day one. He explains Synthesia's "three C's" framework—consent, control, and collaboration: never creating digital replicas without explicit permission, moderating every video before rendering, and engaging with policymakers to shape practical regulation. Voica acknowledges these safeguards have cost some business, but argues that for enterprise sales, trust is competitively essential. The company's content moderation has evolved from simple keyword detection to sophisticated LLM-based analysis, recently withstanding a rigorous public red team test organized by NIST and Humane Intelligence. Voica criticizes the EU AI Act's approach of regulating how AI systems are built rather than focusing on harmful outcomes, noting that smaller models can now match frontier capabilities while evading compute-threshold regulations. He points to the UK's outcome-focused approach—like criminalizing non-consensual deepfake pornography—as more effective. On adoption, Voica argues that AI companies should submit to rigorous third-party audits using ISO standards rather than publishing philosophical position papers—the thesis of his essay "Audits, Not Essays." The conversation closes personally: growing up in 1990s Romania with rare access to English tutoring, Voica sees AI-powered personalized education as a transformative opportunity to democratize learning. Alexandru Voica is the Head of Corporate Affairs and Policy at Synthesia, the UK's largest generative AI company and the world's leading AI video platform. He has worked in the technology industry for over 15 years, holding public affairs and engineering roles at Meta, NetEase, Ocado, and Arm. Voica holds an MSc in Computer Science from the Sant'Anna School of Advanced Studies and serves as an advisor to MBZUAI, the world's first AI university.

Jennifer Giannini brings more than 30 years of experience leading independent audit engagements for corporate clients across a wide range of industries. Throughout her career, she has developed deep expertise in employee benefit plan audits, making this a primary focus area. After many years of working at Baker Tilly, a national CPA firm, Jennifer recently joined LJB CPA to lead the firm's audit practice. Passionate about building strong client relationships, Jennifer returned to a smaller firm to work more closely with clients and deliver a personalized, value-added experience. Her experience at both mid-sized and national firms gives her a unique ability to tailor services to meet each client's specific needs and complexities. In her years of auditing employee benefit plans, she has pretty much seen just about everything- and enjoys helping plan sponsors navigate the tough issues that keep them up at night. In this episode, Eric and Jennifer Giannini discuss:Protecting participants through disciplined plan auditsMaking audit readiness a year-round responsibilityOwning fiduciary controls that cannot be outsourcedAvoiding costly errors through informed governanceKey Takeaways:Plan audits protect participant assets and confirm the plan follows its governing documents. They ensure contributions, matches, distributions, and eligibility are applied consistently. They also help identify fraud or embezzlement risks early.Audits run smoothly when preparation happens throughout the year. Developing processes that represent a living checklist keeps documentation complete. Retaining internal records prevents gaps that auditors will flag.Some fiduciary duties remain with the plan sponsor at all times. Regular reconciliations and documented committee oversight demonstrate prudence. Simple tracking helps surface issues before they escalate.Operational errors often stem from payroll misalignment with plan terms. Early engagement with experienced ERISA auditors reduces surprises. Committees must weigh cost, complexity, and fiduciary risk together.“The early bird always gets the worm. The earlier you start that process with your auditor, the better.” - Jennifer GianniniConnect with Jennifer Giannini:Website: https://ljbcpa.com LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/jennifer-giannini-875071a Connect with Eric Dyson: Website: https://90northllc.com/Phone: 940-248-4800Email: contact@90northllc.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/401kguy/ The information and content of this podcast are general in nature and are provided solely for educational and informational purposes.

A slew of big tax disputes and the worldwide upheaval brought on by the Trump administration's aggressive trade policy made for an exceptionally interesting year for transfer pricing professionals, and left them with lingering questions heading into 2026. President Donald Trump's April tariff announcements sent shock waves through the global economy and forced corporate tax heads—and C suites—to start figuring out what it all meant for their tax and transfer pricing positions, and whether they needed to make changes to fend off potential audits. At the same time, companies are seeing a growing number of audits and transfer pricing disputes—often with big dollar figures—as tax authorities around the world beef up their auditing and enforcement capabilities with staff, AI, and stronger reporting requirements. Auditing multinationals can bring them big tax rewards. That might be less true at the IRS, where the Trump administration has drastically reduced resources and staffing. On this episode of Talking Tax, Bloomberg Tax transfer pricing reporter Caleb Harshberger discusses what's been going on in the world of transfer pricing—which governs transactions within corporate groups—and what he's keeping an eye out for next year.

Auditors are calling out schools for questionable spending on overseas trips and travel. The Auditor-General's latest report flagged concerns with more than 170 school boards last year, many involving how principals used coaching and wellbeing funds. Around a third were tied to travel. Sector Manager for Schools, Jane Rogers told Heather du Plessis-Allan some boards allowed personal travel to be added onto work trips. She says spending public money has to have a justifiable purpose, so they wouldn't expect it to be spent on personal travel. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We unpack Domain 6 with a clear, practical path: how to scope a security audit that executives will fund, teams will follow, and regulators will respect. Along the way, we touch on a fresh angle in the news—an open source LLM tool sniffing out Python zero days—and connect it to what development shops can do right now to lower risk without slowing delivery.We start by demystifying what a security audit is and how it differs from an assessment. Then we get into the decisions that matter: choosing one framework to anchor your work (NIST CSF, ISO 27001, or PCI DSS where applicable), keeping policies lean enough to use under pressure, and building a scope that targets high-value processes like account provisioning or privileged access. You'll hear why internal audits build muscle, external audits unlock credibility, and third-party audits protect your supply chain when a vendor stalls or gets breached. We talk straight about cost, bias, and the communication gaps that derail progress—and how to fix them.From there we focus on outcomes. You'll learn to prioritize incident response and third-party risk for the biggest return, write right-to-audit clauses that actually help, and map findings to business impact so leaders say yes to headcount and tooling. We share ways to pair tougher controls with enablement—like deploying a password manager before lengthening passphrases—so adoption sticks. Expect practical reminders on interview planning, evidence collection, and keeping stakeholders aligned without burning goodwill. It's a playbook for turning findings into funding and audits into forward motion.If this helped you reframe how you approach Domain 6 and security audits, subscribe, leave a review, and share it with a teammate who's staring down their next audit.

In this episode of Let's Combinate, Subhi Saadeh breaks down why more engineers in pharma, medical devices, and combination products should seriously consider becoming auditors. Sparked by a question at a PDA conference: “Why don't more technical people lead audits?” This episode explores the gap between technical expertise and true audit competency.Subhi explains how engineers who combine their technical background with audit training often become the most effective auditors. They gain a system-level perspective, understand how design decisions ripple through the QMS, and can identify systemic root causes that others overlook. He also clears up common misconceptions about auditing, including the idea that it's just paperwork or checklist work, and reframes it as one of the fastest ways to build regulatory fluency, strengthen quality systems understanding, and expand career versatility across industries.The episode closes with practical steps for how engineers can get started: shadowing internal audits, learning audit frameworks and methodologies, taking formal training, and seeking mentorship from experienced auditors.Timestamps:00:00 – Why Engineers Should Consider Auditing01:10 – How Auditing Expands Technical Perspective05:26 – Misconceptions & Why Engineers Avoid Auditing11:25 – How to Start Your Audit Journey13:27 – Final Thoughts: Seeing the System, Not Just the SpecSubhi Saadeh is the Founder and Principal of Let's Combinate BioWorks and the host of Let's Combinate: Drugs + Devices. With a background spanning Quality, Manufacturing Operations, and R&D, he has supported the development and launch of hardware devices, disposable systems, and drug–device combination products across vaccines, generics, and biologics at some of the industry's largest medical device and pharma organizations.Subhi currently serves as the Working Group Chair for the Rx-360 Combination Products Working Group and previously served as the International Working Group Chair for the Combination Products Coalition (CPC).

John Maytham is joined by Alan Winde, Premier of the Western Cape, to unpack the call for lifestyle audits—what they would check, who must act, and how fast this can realistically happen.

His show serves a round-up of local and international news coupled with the latest in business, sport, traffic and weather. The host’s eclectic interests mean the program often surprises the audience with intriguing book reviews and inspiring interviews profiling artists.

Still waiting on your Employee Retention Tax Credit refund? Dr. Friday explains why long delays are happening and what you should do next. Transcript G'day, I'm Dr. Friday, president of Dr. Friday's Tax and Financial Firm. To get more info, go to www.drfriday.com. This is a one-minute moment. Back in 2023 and early 2024, many employers were doing the ERC/ERTC—Employee Retention Tax Credits—and some people had no issue. But there was so much fraud that they found during an audit that if you're still waiting… In fact, I saw something from like ADP or something saying that it was still out there available. You need to just basically wait. If your account is out there, they may eventually process it. They have put a hold—they're doing an audit. It's gonna take a while for you to see any of that ERTC money at this time. But if you need help with doing your accounting or taxes, just give me a call, 367-0819. You can catch the Dr. Friday Call-in Show live every Saturday afternoon from 2 to 3 p.m. right here on 99.7 WTN.
With a critical round of by-elections coming up next week, the African National Congress (ANC) has announced that all candidates for 2026 Local Government Elections will have to undergo criminal record and qualifications vetting, submit interest declarations, and consent to lifestyle audits. This is lauded by Elections Analyst Wayne Sussman on the latest edition of the Electoral Roadshow with Chris Steyn. Sussens gives in-depth previews of the most important upcoming by-elections, including the straight two-horse race between the Democratice Alliance (DA) and the ANC in City of Joburg Ward 90 where President Cyril Ramaphosa lives; the turbulence amid which MKP has to contest Mandeni where Umkhonto we Sizwe won over 70% of the vote in 2024 in the historic ANC stronghold; Kouga where the DA ward councillor walked over to the Patriotic Alliance; and Hantam where the local councillor was assassinated. As for the possible date of next year's Local Government elections, Sussman reveals that he is hearing from reliable sources that it will either be held on 4th or the 11th of November.
In this episode, I'm breaking down the fears and myths around IRS audits. I compare getting audited to getting pulled over—it feels intimidating, but it's usually not as bad as you think. I'll walk you through what really happens during an audit, how to prepare, and why good bookkeeping is your best defense. I'm also setting the record straight on that rumor about the IRS hiring 80,000 new agents. By the end, you'll feel more confident and a lot less anxious about the idea of an audit.
